Topic: U.S. Constitutional Amendment (Read 1299 times)

To create the additional layer of government over what already exists, Americans must amend our Constitution. We propose that because it is a structural change to the Constitution, that we return to the convention path that our Founding Fathers used to write it. We are calling for an Article V amendment convention, and we are opening the idea to debate.

Several years ago when the proposal to add an amendment to the ND constitution about a right to hunt I was against it as I was concerned that 1 Hunting is not a right and 2 then the NDFB would have an amendment to have a right to farm anyway they want. Well, here it is.

These are not rights that should be guaranteed by the constitution. Constitutional rights are inalienable rights for all citizens, not a select few. Heck, I think I should have a constitutional right to forgoe any of my debts, a right to own a section of land, a right to shop at Walmart on Sunday mornings. WTH?

What is the NDFB so concerned about that we need to litter the constitution with things like this? Last time I checked, farming is not under any threat from ending.
